Some can kill with a glance, others with gas you’d never smell until it was too late.”
“Well, he doesn’t look like he can release a deadly smoke bomb. He literally has hair on his ears.
Pleaseeee the way I cracked up LMAO like whattt

“It’s disrespectful,” Samkiel all but growled, and I wondered for a second who was more beast, the guy on the wall, me, or Samkiel, when someone talked badly about me.

Me*with the trend*: My favourite animal is Samkiel when someone disrespects Dianna :D

I stepped in front of Dianna, blocking her from his accusing finger. “If you look at her like that again, speak to her in that same tone, or threaten her, I do not care about any partnership or alliance we may form. I will kill you,” I said, meaning every word.
SCREAMING, CRYING AND DYING THEY BOTH ARE SO PRECIOUS.
WHEN THE "TOUCH HER AND YOU DIE" trope hits (like this trope rarely ever goes bad)

Samkiel (pov)
“I’ve noticed.” The queen raised her brow. “How serious are you two?” She is my everything.

Dianna a few chapters later- “My eye does not work on you, so I ask, what does the King of Rashearim mean to you?” “Everything.” I didn’t hesitate or pause.

HELP THEY ARE BOTH SO MUCH IN LOVE

“He literally has gills on the side of his neck,” I said to Reggie as the soldier spluttered and coughed. “Those are vents, my queen. Not capable of breathing underwater.”

Dianna being Dianna is so amusing like just the correct amount of humour and badass, one of my fav povs fr (why are her povs so less in this book- I do like side char povs but more of Dianna would be fun)

I was also a spy for The Eye. My sister, as well.” My spoon froze mid-dip, but I kept looking ahead. “Veruka is her name. She’s there right now and sent me word.”
Veruka stopped at his side, placing a hand on his bare shoulder. I knew she was an elf from her pointed ears, mauve skin, and and fangs. That also explained the tail.
THE WAY I SCREAMED!!!! EXCUSE ME WHILE I FIX MY JAW THAT'S ON THE FLOOR- THE FEELS

“Do gods get cold?” he asked behind the spoonful of mush. I glared at him. “I’m not a god.” He nodded. “Still keeping up that ruse, huh?” He shrugged and took another bite. “You need to eat. That gaping wound on your side isn’t healing.”
Alright, but hear me out- Samkiel and Orym. Y do they have such a tension and a banter 😫 this feels more than friendship and while I love Damkiel, this is cute too ✨

“Yes.” This time, he did glance at me. “You haven’t eaten today.” My brows furrowed. “And how would you know that?”
“And my word is also law. I could have the cook in the far right gutted tonight for how he’s staring at you, and Nismera would allow it,” he said, taking a long drink from our shared glass.
HAHHH I SMELL A SHIP INCOMING (I mean it's pretty obvious) but idk how to feel about this yet 😭

“Let go of me, or I’ll melt your cock off.” A corner of his lips twitched, but he stood up and glanced at the open door before saying, “Do it. You’ll only be doing me a favor. Maybe she would leave me alone for a day.”
Arghhhh, it's so hard trying not to feel bad for Vincent I already hate him for the shit he pulled- Bro's acting like he hasn't paved the path for Nismera to come back

“Companion?” Vincent asked, one perfectly sculpted brow raised. “The fate,” Nismera corrected. “I did not kill him. He is the one helping her now. It has to be him.”

WDYM MY BRO REGGIE HAS BEEN CAUGHT TOO OML 😭 I CAN'T GO THROUGH THIS SURIEL DEATH 2.0 Srsly targetting Dianna's friends one by one is so cruel

AAAAAAH *SCREAMING* NO WHAT IT'S ALL GOING DOWNHILL-
I mean I did want the plot but 😭 now that they're separate oml I'm so scared-
Wait tho Miska- if smthg happens to her I STG

Cedaar’s eyes widened a fraction, and I wondered what the word dessert meant. “What’s dessert?” I asked Reggie. He only shook his head. “Some things are better left unknown.”
PLEASE THE WAY I CRACKED UP 😭🤣 LMAO Miska is so pure for this world and Reggie just looks so done with them

Dianna was my queen, the only one who would receive that title from me, the only one I’d bow to.
She is my everything. The words floated across my mind, a truth that lived deeper than my flesh and bone, one buried in my very atoms.

Aaaaah screaming, crying, dying bcoz Samkiel is setting the standard for being whipped with his woman, he's in his husband mode FRR

"There was something about Merren that made it difficult to be cross with him. There was no malice behind those dark-blue eyes."

This boi is a cutie and I will stand to protect him. It's decided. The innocent cinnamon roll char is finally here.

She ran her finger around the inside of his waistband, laughed. “Velvet-lined?” He licked her lower lip. “They’re Conor’s.”

Help all I could think of was velvet covered steel lmaooo (Sjm's influence and all that)

“I am not,” Kel insisted, “going to be part of your team.” Ji-An pointed the blade at him again. “He won’t cooperate,” she said to the Ragpicker King.(TRK) “You might as well let me kill him. He has a killable face.”
Why is TRK (yes I'm gon call him that) giving lowkey Kaz vibes tho? (The whole building a team trope) Also Jian is a hardcore baddie and I am so here for it.

“Ji-An, dear,” said the Ragpicker King. “You are an expert at killing people. It’s why I employ you. But I am an expert at knowing people. And this one will come back.” He made a small, shooing gesture with his scarred fingers, in Kel’s direction. “Go on. Get out. Or I might start to think you enjoy my company.”

Me- it's fun to read about morally gray chars who are charming.
My bff- Are they gay? 🤡

a very tall, very slender man dressed in black; this man’s clothes were rich and expensive looking, from his velvet frock coat to the blackthorn cane. He goes round all in black, like Gentleman Death come to take your soul, and his carriage wheels are stained with blood. “Yes,” Kel said. “You’re the Ragpicker King.”

Yes. Why is he so fine. (This description is hardly half of what was given in the book). 10/10 rating

Lin had struggled to convince the elders of the Sault that she, a woman, should be allowed to learn medicine. They had finally permitted it, not
believing she would pass the physician's exam
It still gave her pleasure to remember that her
scores had been higher than those of any of the
male students.

Please I love this girl like hello academic validation is my one true love and doing it out of spite... You go girl!

The world seemed to darken before Lin’s eyes. She took a deep breath, her small hands knotting into fists—

By the Angel, if Cassie writes this one down as
thin and small and tiny fr imma lose interest smh enough of it 😭

The synopsis: As long-kept secrets begin to unravel, they must ask themselves: ls knowledge worth the price of betrayal? Can forbidden love bring down a kingdom? And will their discoveries plunge their nation into war-and the world into chaos?
No one: ...
Cassandra clare: There is only one trope that exists in romance- Forbidden love 🤡 So unique cuz she's never used this trope before*coughs*

“Lin is a physician,” Mariam said. "She cured your gout last fall, did she not?” “It still comes back sometimes,” he said sourly. “Every time I eat pheasant.” Which I told you not to do, Lin thought.

My girl Lin has my support(me being a med student myself) she's a physician and I already love her. Iconic women in Stem (or whatever it would be called in dystopian fantasy).

I'm sorry." Not looking the least bit
sorry, Dom Lafont- a nervous little man
with black-rimmed spectacles perched on a
warty nose- shook his head. "It isn't possi-
ble."

Me- This man is named Dom.😭
Bff- What is it short for?
Me- Y do u think I feel it's cringe, it's just Dom, which btw I can't help associating with few toilet cleaner brands (Dominic and Domex) 🤡

Mayesh said, “the suggestion is that the daughter, like her mother the Queen, will one day also be a great beauty.” “Is she not one now?” Conor took the paper from Mayesh. “Red hair,” he said. “I loathe red hair. Besides. Sarthe.”

Ngl Cassie saying this hits different for once... Conor seems reasonable
Also my best friend-What the fuck is a Mayesh?
Me- more like a whitened fantasy version of Mahesh 🤡

Dnfing this (didn't even read completely till 20% I kinda just skimmed through the pages) honestly I don't get the hype at all because the writing and world building is really bad and the info dump is too heavy.
Tried giving this book a chance after I dnfed Caraval but this is somehow worse. I just couldn't find enough interest or care bcoz the FMC doesn't even make sense, and the plot is too messy. Ugh

“Jace is the boy Leigh thinks is cute,” I interrupted.
“What’s your name, girl?”
“Arwen Valondale. And yours?”

This got me having shadowhunters vibes frr... Valondale sounds a lot like Herondale, not to mention the name Jace XD

Anyway, if I lose enough weight, Rachel says, I’ll definitely get a hot boyfriend.
But how on earth could anyone ever give up cold sesame noodles? Even for a guy who makes a hundred thousand dollars a year? ~ Heather's pov

Ofc Meg Cabot's fmcs always hit different 😭😂 Same, Heather, Same. I second that.
